[[File:Pit's moods.jpg|350px|thumb|Pit's various expressions from ''Uprising''.]]
Like most [[Nintendo]] protagonists, Pit is typically goodhearted, selfless, and heroic. He is generally very upbeat no matter what the situation (although he can be genuinely serious when needed), which certain characters, including both foe and ally, can find it a nuisance. Pit frequently banters, cracks jokes, makes outrageous puns, and constantly breaks the fourth wall. He has made references to other Nintendo games such as [[mariowiki:Dr. Mario (game)|''Dr. Mario'']], [[metroidwiki:Metroid (series)|''Metroid'']], and [[wikipedia:Nintendogs|''Nintendogs'']]. Pit also possesses a strong sense of justice, and believes in protecting humanity and the heavens from those that seek their destruction. His loyalty to Palutena is matched by no other, and he always addresses her as "Lady Palutena". Pit even states the main reason he fights in the first place is because of her. However, his absolute trust and dependence on Palutena has shown to be a major weakness, as Pit's courage and morale (and in some cases, his sanity) will severely drop if she is not present. Although not the smartest angel around, he is shown to be quite knowledgeable with video games, particularly from other Nintendo franchises. Even at one point, he was called a "video game historian". Pit also has a large appetite (which may have rubbed off from Palutena) and will eat almost anything regardless of where it comes from. He is shown to be a devout lover of hot springs, which Palutena (and once, Viridi) will occasionally conjure up for him. Pit strongly follows the "angel's code of conduct" to the point he even refuses to remove his clothes when entering water. However, the truth behind this is because the angel is frugal and wants to save on laundry.

However, his absolute trust and dependence on Palutena has shown to be a major weakness, as Pit's courage and morale (and in some cases, his sanity) will falter if she is not present.

Pit also has a large appetite (which may have rubbed off from Palutena) and will eat almost anything regardless of where it comes from. Overall, his mind never seems to be too far from food even during battles. He is shown to be a devout lover of hot springs, which Palutena (and once, Viridi) will occasionally conjure up for him. Pit strongly follows the "angel's code of conduct" to the point he even refuses to remove his clothes when entering water.

Due to his young age, Pit is childish, gullible and naive. He is unfortunately not very bright either. Pit is illiterate and has trouble understanding complex vocabulary used by Palutena. Some characters even sarcastically insult his intelligence, and his inability to detect sarcasm makes things easier for others (Ironically, Pit can sometimes make sarcastic statements himself). Pit can become oversensitive, especially when someone brings up the topic regarding his inability to fly, or when someone insults his goddess. He can even be slightly narcissistic at times, believing he is an attractive-looking person. According to Palutena, Pit embarrasses easily, and Pit himself admits he gets stage fright. Despite his position as captain of an army, he seems to strongly prefer working alone (with the exception of Palutena), as Pit shows reluctance whenever someone offers help, and the angel states that he doesn't need his or her assistance. Regardless of Pit's quirky and sometimes immature behavior, Palutena and the centurions view him as a respectable servant and captain.

Pit can become oversensitive, especially when someone brings up the topic regarding his inability to fly, or when someone insults his goddess. He can even be slightly narcissistic at times, believing he is an attractive-looking person. However, he can become insecure when being compared to someone else with better looks.

However, the existence of [[Dark Pit]] may indicate Pit is not always as kind and friendly as he appears.

===Abilities===
Despite Pit being a flightless angel, he is still a skilled and versatile fighter. He originally started out as an archer that mainly specialized in using the Bow, but over the years he has become more experienced with using various weapons like the [[Blade]], [[Claws]], [[Cannon]], etc. Even though Pit has a childish appearance, he seems to possess great physical strength, and is capable of utilizing massive weapons like the [[Arm]] or [[Club]]. The angel has also learned to use impressive abilities and magic known as [[Powers]] which are granted by Palutena. Although he has access to numerous weapon classes, he has preference for bows, specifically the [[Palutena Bow]], which is also his signature weapon.

[[Viridi]] even comments he is destructive as "a hundred Reset Bombs", and the [[Chariot Master]] states he possesses a "deep reservoir of strength".

Pit returns in the latest instalments of the popular series as a starter veteran. His slightly updated appearance and new moves are inspired as seen in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''. He now has the [[Upperdash Arm]], [[Guardian Orbitars]], and [[Power of Flight]] as his new specials. He also gained a new [[smashwiki:Final Smash|Final Smash]], which is now the [[Three Sacred Treasures]]. However, he lost the ability to [[smashwiki:glide|glide]], as the technique has been removed from the games.

'''Pit (3DS/Wii U)'''<br>
''Pit is the captain of Palutena's royal guard. Despite having wings on his back, Pit needs the Power of Flight from Palutena in order to truly fly. In Smash Bros., he can still get more air than most, with four jumps and a special move that boosts him higher. He has a new reflect move—it protects both sides!''

''Pit's side special Upperdash Arm delivers an uppercut so strong, it can send foes flying for a KO. If you miss and fall off the stage, Pit's up special can bring him soaring back. Another of Pit's specials is Palutena Bow, which fires arrows Pit can aim even after they've left the bow.''

''Let's squash a misconception right now—there is nothing worse than being turned into an eggplant. Just lettuce tell you, being hit by an eggplant bomb is humiliating. It leafs you without without mushroom to manuever and also makes you a laughing stalk of your friends.''

''The Arrow of Light, the Wings of Pegasus, and the Mirror Shield—three legendary artifacts that Pit once used to defeat the evil Medusa. When you activate Pit's Final Smash, he can use them in this game too! After firing a barrage of different bow attacks, his final shot will cause powerful light pillars to rain down on the battlefield.''
